Stuff Lately
Final Fantasy XII: Wow. What can I say about this game? So far - I like it. I'm especially in love with the art and music. The background designs, the characters... all of it reminds me of Vagrant Story (truly one of Square's most underrated and undiscovered gems). That makes sense, since it's the same person who worked on both games! The music also sounds like an improved Vagrant Story score. The combat system took a bit of getting used to, but I've grown to like it. I'm looking very forward to getting further into the game (I've only just gotten Basch, so really like, 5% in?)
WoW stuff: The guild I'm in just ran Blackwing Lair for the first time as a guild on Friday. I've been once before with some other guildmates, filling in some spots on another guild's raid. We did a whole lot better than expected, dropping Razorgore on the third try! Very impressive for what's considered a "Guild breaker" fight and that we're not even ultra-hardcore raiders is all the better. Hopefully it wasn't a one-off and we'll manage it again next time. I've recorded some video on Fraps and will be compiling it when I get home to post on YouTube or something.
In other news, mom's finally home since her broken leg accident back in mid-July. She's still got the cast on, though. It comes off next month. In the meantime, she can walk with the help of crutches, though she prefers the walker. My sister has once again gone off on vacation leaving mom in the care of her boyfriend (he's moved in since I left) and dad. I've taken it upon myself to see mom during this time because she's technically alone during the day and needs a hand still. A woman comes by from the nearby hospital to give her a bath, but she's only around for an hour and then takes off. She doesn't cook or clean. So hard to find good help these days.
